- A 30-g bullet is fired with a velocity of 480 m/s into block A , which has a mass of 5 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and cart BC is 0.50. Knowing that the cart has a mass of 4 kg and can roll freely, determine (a) the final velocity of the cart and block, (b) the final position of the block on the cart.arrow_forwardCar A of mass 1800 kg and car B of mass 1700 kg are at rest on a 20-Mg flatcar which is also at rest. Cars A and B then accelerate and quickly reach constant speeds relative to the flatcar of 2.35 m/s and 1.175 m/s, respectively, before decelerating to a stop at the opposite end of the flatcar. Neglecting friction and rolling resistance, determine the velocity of the flatcar when the cars are moving at constant speeds.arrow_forwardDisk A rotates in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis at the constant rate 00. Slider B has a mass m and moves in a frictionless slot cut in the disk. The slider is attached to a spring of constant k , which is undeformed when r= 0. Knowing that the slider is released with no radial velocity in the position r=r0,, draw a FBD and KD at an arbitrary distance r from 0.arrow_forward
- In the system shown, a 150 N collar-pulley assembly slides on a horizontal shaft with coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.10 between the collar and the shaft, and is acted upon by a force P with a magnitude of P = 303.887 N at an angle θ = 35.38° as shown. Knowing that the assembly is initially at rest, what is the time when the velocity reaches to 3 m/s? what is the velocity of collar ? after 3 seconds? Also, at this instant, find the tension in the cord and the velocity of block A.arrow_forward1. A wood block of mass mw = 200 g is projected from the ground at a speed v0 = 35 m/s and at an angle θ= 50degree. When at height h = 24 m the wood block was hit by a bullet of mass mb = 25 g which was moving at vb = 220 m/s and at an angle θb = 70degree. After the collision, the bullet embedded itself in the block and move together and land at point A on the ground. Then they move on the ground that has coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.5 and start to compress a horizontal spring at point B. The distance between point A and B is 18 m and the spring constant k = 3×102 N/m. Right end of the spring is fixed, and all motions are confined in x-y plane. (e) Determine how much the spring will be compressed when the block-bullet system comesto a rest.arrow_forwardTwo spheres, each of mass m, can slide freely on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Sphere A is moving at a speed v0 = 16 ft/s when it strikes sphere B which is at rest, and the impact causes sphere B to break into two pieces, each of mass m/2.a) Knowing that 0.7 s after the collision one piece reaches Point C and 1.17 s after the collision the other piece reaches Point D, determine the velocity of sphere A after the collision.b) Knowing that 0.7 s after the collision one piece reaches Point C and 1.17 s after the collision the other piece reaches Point D, determine the angle θ and the speeds of the two pieces after the collision.arrow_forward
- A 3-kg block rests on top of a 2-kg block supported by, but not attached to, a spring of constant 40 N/m. The upper block is suddenly removed. Determine (a) the maximum speed reached by the 2-kg block, (b) the maximum height reached by the 2-kg block.arrow_forwardA 1-kg collar can slide on a horizontal rod that is free to rotate about a vertical shaft. The collar is initially held at A by a cord attached to the shaft. A spring of constant 30 N/m is attached to the collar and to the shaft and is undeformed when the collar is at A. As the rod rotates at the rate 0=16 rad/s, the cord is cut and the collar moves out along the rod. Neglecting friction and the mass of the rod, determine (a) the radial and transverse components of the acceleration of the collar at A, (b) the acceleration of the collar relative to the rod at A, (c) the transverse component of the velocity of the collar at B.arrow_forwardA 4-lb collar which can slide on a frictionless vertical rod is acted upon by a force P which varies in magnitude as shown. Knowing that the collar is initially at rest, draw the impulse-momentum diagram that can be used to determine its velocity at t= 3 s.arrow_forward
- Two identical spheres A and B each of mass m , are attached to an inextensible inelastic cord of length L and are resting at a distance a from each other on a frictionless horizontal surface. Sphere B is given a velocity v0 in a direction perpendicular to line AB and moves it without friction until it reaches B ’ where the cord becomes taut. Draw the impulse-momentum diagram that can be used to determine the magnitude of the velocity of each sphere immediately after the cord has become taut.arrow_forwardA spring AB of constant k=200kn/m is attached to a support at A and to a collar of mass m=200 gm. The unstretched length of the spring is I=0.6m. Knowing that the collar is released from rest at x0 = 80 cm and neglecting friction between the collar and the horizontal rod, determine :the magnitude of the velocity of the collar as it passes through point C.arrow_forwardA small rivet connecting two pieces of sheet metal is being clinched by hammering. Determine the impulse exerted on the rivet and the energy absorbed by the rivet under each blow, knowing that the head of the hammer has a weight of 1.5 lb and that it strikes the rivet with a velocity of 20 ft/s. Assume that the hammer does not rebound and that the anvil is supported by springs and (a) has an infinite mass (rigid support), (b) has a weight of 9 lb.arrow_forward
